+1 for disallow.

raise <exception class instance> is a simple rule to remember.

Having VE == VE() in certain contexts is/would be like haveing s.len == 
s.len() or func == func() (a moderately frequent newbie request) in certain 
contexts.

Plus, why encourage less-helpful, no message exceptions ;-)
